Once, there was a farmer who found a hedgehog statue. It was very beautiful, and its eyes
were made of diamond. He brought it home and showed it to his wife. They were so poor,
so they planned to sell the statue. However, the farmer had a dream at night. In his dream, a
giant hedgehog came to him and said, "Please, let me stay in your house. As a return I will
give you everything you want. Just care the statue's head and say the prayer." There were
two prayers to memorize. One was to start their wish and the second to stop the wish. In
the morning, the farmer proved his dream. And it worked. The farmer and his wife got all
they want. One day, a thief knew about the statue. He stole the statue. Then he said the
prayer to ask some water because he was very thirsty. The water came out of the statue's
mouth. Unfortunately, the thief didn't know how to stop the wish. Then he asked for help,
but nobody helped him. People were scared and ran away. More and more water
surrounded the thief. Slowly it became a pond. Some water flowed on the ground and
became a river. Then people named the river as Hedgehog River or Sungai Landak. We can
see it in West Kalimantan.
